I'll check out the settings. However, I'm not sure how others do it, but I have names like this:

I save to the same slot I load from so that every time I load that save, it has the major parameters I've chosen as the "split" points for making that save and moving forward.
I'm not doing it in this VN, but if I were to do something like take every major iteration and save it at the end of a release, then pick up and make a new save as of the new release, what went into the new slot would get a new name, or at least a chapter/episode/release tag, but the underlying "major decisions" of the save wouldn't change, so having a name that stays the same makes the most sense, at least the way I play, and the way I suspect most people play.
Having to type in a save name every time, especially if you have multiple paths due to all of the potential branches involved in a VN with this much going on, gets cumbersome.
I screenshot my most complex page - pages 1-3 each have four saves, leaving room for expansion, with a pregnancy/no pregnancy iteration of each of two primary path variations on the page.
Maybe others really aren't tracking this way and just throw a save where they feel like it and they just know they're all a little different and what they get, they get. But, I have a more organized mind than that. Maybe I'm the outlier. Who knows.
EDIT: Elhemeer - you posted as I was typing. Basically, once I save to a slot, I keep saving the same version to the same slot every time. There's no need to change the name once I've saved to the slot because that save is built upon the major branching decisions (at least decisions I thought could be major) at the point I created a separate save for a variance to/branch from a previous path. Retyping it every time just takes extra time, and the way the text boxes work, editing is a nuisance.
